Guiding Wasteland Dragonbone Question

[Garviel Loken]

I know that giant bonepiles drop it but how do I get those to spawn? I keep getting giant mining outcrops instead.

by gathering bones...

RNG. Here's a hint : Pretend you want the mining version of that resource and desire sensor will povide you with only bonepiles. You have to really believe though, desire sensor is hard to be tricked.

Keep on gathering brotha, it can be a pain and you might have more lucky joining other people's guiding lands who already have their outcrop regions high. I farmed most of what i need so whenever I run my GL all the resources are capped for people who join to get them. If you're over MR 100 keep a lookout for my name and other high rank players who do the same.

Edit: Color tier for piles
White, Yellow, Orange, Red, Red/Giant outcrop (this is where you get the guiding materials but usually only one time you can gather, I've only gathered twice two times)

i would also add that if you play without mods bone piles in the wildspare waste zone are pretty "mimetic" untill you figure out where they spawn

Yeah I did notice that; but I don't want to mod the game.

^+1; Yeah and set your objective on Gathering (on particular zone) instead of free investigation; at least it helps to set clear what kind of mission they are participating. Have a good day, cheers.

Make sure you have a tailraider as well as your palico with you to get extra guiding ores/bones. I think they can collect from the giant ones too and have a chance of gathering from the red piles.
